Mondays Child
“Monday’s Child
Monday’s child is fair of face,
Tuesday’s child is full of grace,
Wednesday’s child is full of woe,
Thursday’s child has far to go,
Friday’s child is loving and giving,
Saturday’s child must work for a living,
But the child that’s born on the Sabbath day, Is fair and wise and good and gay.

The Laugh
I did a very bad thing
I laughed
It’s worse than that time in Beijing
when I laughed
It was in Gananoque while I was away
I was stuttering trying to say Gananoque
all that came out was Gana Gan Gana
a smart young man began to tease me
I gave him a smack
and we started to laugh
He was the boy who was walking
and while talking
leaned down to say hello to a dog
all of a sudden he was in a rather large fog
when the dog jumped up and bit him
He was telling me the tale
and I said without fail
Well I’m glad your ok
and
“What kind of dog was it”
he then said with a smirk
A Beagle with a really big tail
Well I just could not contain myself
I laughed
my heart now on the ice shelf
I then quickly back tracked and apologized
and said
I’m so sorry I was expecting a much larger dog……
We both laughed
and he is ok
with just a small mark on his nose
and a good lesson learned
not to say hello to strange old beagles
≈Laugh loudly, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly≈
Alone
I wrote this Haiku in another blog of mine which I truly neglect called Angies Scratch Pad
Children grow up so quickly
Where did the time go
I am feeling so alone.

A Poem a Day for April
Papizilla and Sahm King are celebrating Poetry Month by getting as many of their “peeps” as they can to contribute a poem everyday for the Month of April.
I thought it would be fun to participate
There is also a facebook page and blog site both by the same name
You should check it out there are some brilliant works of poetry being posted
I will try my best in the future to be a little more impassioned 😀
but for today we’ll just keep it in true Angie Style
😀 :D:D
A Poem a day
I said ok
Wonder what I’ll write today?
Something happy?
Something Sad?
Something serious?
How shall I begin?
Choose a phrase?
Choose a feeling?
A poem a day
What should I write today?
Happy Sunday

do not torture yourself

A Poetry Contest
Time is quickly running out….
Papizilla has a Poetry Contest on a facebook page called “We Drink Because We’re Poets” .
I just entered my poem…..if you can call it that, but it is up to AngiesGrapevine standards 😀 😀
I’m drinking Bud Light
Hoping to win the poetry contest tonight
Papizilla my buddy and pal
Is great for my Moral
HE invited me to write
He must think I’m clever and bright
So I said All right
I’ll get writing tonight
I never claimed to be a Farley Mowat
I’m Just a girl with a blog
Who owns an old sled dog
I drink Because I’m a poet
Who just doesn’t know it
I think this poem is quite good
Not sure how the ending should go
So I’m off to make some food
For I am
Hungry

A little Haiku for a Thursday Morning
Today is Thursday
Lots of work to do today
Weekend coming soon
Laugh loudly, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly
Haiku and related form
Love the title it’s the “related form” I’m writing here…:D 😀 😀
A little haiku
to explain my absence here
First there was working
Then curling bonspiel
lots of driving around town
The kids lost their game
But only by two
gained experience galore
still needed a tissue
Sportsmanship top-notch
Another long game today
more driving around
hope to have a win
See you on Monday
for Meatless recipes
and useless Tuesday info
Remember to Laugh loudly
Love generously
and
Care deeply
and most importantly
Speak kindly.
